I wanted for a long time to use laser CNC to do some stuff. So finally I have done this small Conway’s game of life. In case you don’t know, it consist of an universe, in this case pretty small (8×8) cells. Each cell can be dead or alive and the state of each cell interact with the state of the neighbors cells state as follow:

Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbours dies, as if caused by under-population.

Any live cell with two or three live neighbours lives on to the next generation.

Any live cell with more than three live neighbours dies, as if by overcrowding.

Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbours becomes a live cell, as if by reproduction.
